b. thick bark
Explanation: Savannas have frequent fires and scattered woody plants/trees; thick bark protects trunks from fire and heat. Grasslands are dominated by grasses (which lack bark) and commonly have deep roots, so long roots, bitter chemical defenses, or water storage are either common in grasslands or more typical of arid/desert plants, not uniquely savanna trees.
